Shikkoku Black bearing

漆黒 -Shikokku-

Like all beers from the Japanese brewery COEDO, their dark lager Shikokku is award-winning It has won numerous international awards and brought the brewery worldwide recognition We are proud to be the exclusive partner and general importer of this exceptional beer brand!

The Japanese term stands for the pitch-black color of onyx - a stone that is said to have miraculous, powerful powers In spiritual circles, onyx is considered a warrior stone with a protective effect It calms and combats fear With its onyx-colored beer, COEDO proudly faces international competition in the battle for the best dark beer in the world

As expected, Shikokku comes in a deep black mahogany hue and presents itself with a head that is reminiscent of black Earl Grey in color The rich, multi-layered aroma of fresh hops pampers the nose and is paired with the smoky, caramel notes of roasted malt and a beautiful coffee note Eight different malts are used in the brewing of this masterpiece and provide the wonderfully mystical color and full-bodied malt character Shikokku enchants the palate with dark notes of coffee, Dark chocolate and caramel The lager ends in a crisp, dry finish and is skillfully balanced Delicately composed bitterness meets sweet malt notes, a surprisingly lively carbonation underpins the interplay of aromas

An excellent dark lager Highly recommended!
